“Dear Ms. Howe, . . . When you told the stories there was this feeling in side of me that made me feel like I was having a great dream. Thank you so much for coming to Grant School. Your friend, Kelli.”—student in Lawrence, KS.
I love telling stories. I love it so much that I became a full-time storyteller in 1993.
What do I tell? Funny, scary, serious, goofy and sophisticated stories, tailored to the audience in front of me. You’ll find me at festivals, school assemblies and residencies, juvenile detention centers, libraries, house concerts, colleges and coffeehouses. I perform in English, French and occasionally Bulgarian. When I'm with young children, my hand puppets come along for the ride. When I’m performing for older kids and adults, I may bring out stories for more refined sensibilities.
My recordings are available at CDBaby, FilmBaby, and a few local outlets:
